{"product_id":"early-modern-visual-allegory-hardback","title":"Early Modern Visual Allegory - Hardback","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe first book in over twenty-five years devoted solely to allegory and personification in art history, this anthology complements current literary and cultural studies of allegory. The volume re-examines early modern allegorical imagery in light of crucial material, contextual and methodological questions: how are allegories conceived; for whom; and for what purposes? Contributors consider a wide range of allegorical representations in the visual arts and material culture, of both early modern Europe and the colonial \"New World\" 1400-1800.  Essays included here examine paintings, sculpture, prints, architecture and the spaces of public ritual while discussing the process and theory of interpretation, formation of audiences, reception history, appropriation and censorship. A special focus on the medium of the body in visual allegory unites the volume's diverse materials and methods.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45576408891630,"sku":"9780754657606","price":244.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780754657606.jpg?v=1720971768","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/early-modern-visual-allegory-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
